According to some Russian media that are close to the military, Ukrainian forces launched another attack on Crimea. On the morning of July 25, the AFU reportedly struck the peninsula with Storm Shadow missiles.
In the early morning, Ukrainian Su-24M bombers reportedly launched three Storm Shadow cruise missiles. The target was an assembly point of damaged cars located in the area of Kremnevka north of Simferopol. The target was reportedly hit.
It is noticed that the Ukrainian military is launching attacks with three missiles from a large distance in order to avoid strikes of Russian ADSs.

According to the media, this is the fourth attack on the peninsula with Strom shadow missiles. LINK The Russian military does not officially acknowledge Ukrainian attacks by foreign cruise missiles on its territories, likely in order to avoid escalation. No footage from the spot confirmed the strikes so far.
perhaps the reason is they are not storm shadow missiles, but have a ballistic trajectory that is beyond the capabilities of systems in place, like the pantsir. the s-500 can detect and hit ballistic projectiles, why would russia reveal that when the destination of the projectile is not a ‘vital spot’.
“vital spot”
let’s see what the s-500 does when ukraine targets the kremlin building.
well i hope the troops act responsible and show the same restraint that they show when donbas civilians are targetet. some polititians lives can not be more important than to keep the technology secrets. ;-)
every single so called “red line” has been crossed. every single one. yet the night clubs and casinos remain open in kiev and the war tourists from throughout the eu visit ukrainian cities in first class rail carriages at will. heck, even moscow is getting hit. no wonder the russian generals are angry. this is now a war and should be treated as such. further restraint on russia’s part is seen as nothing but weakness by the west and invites escalation.
russia doesn’t forget.
russia is doing all it can. the only thing it hasn’t tried is nukes.
it’s neither weakness nor restraint. it is unwillingness to accept that the enemy will not accept anything but total victory or total destruction. they still try to find something that does not exist … a somewhat clean way out. russia will either step on the skull of the western leaders or they will step on the skull of the russian leaders well or they will anihilate each other and humanity in the process.
“the target was an assembly point of damaged cars” – seriously sf, you have outdone yourself this time.
yeah, i wondered about that too.
je na čase, aby rf vypustila do vesmíru aspoň ďalšie dve špionážne družice zamerané čisto na krym a donbas. tým by určite získali lepší prehľad. inak po skončení švo by tie družice potom následne vedeli využiť na sledovanie kerčského mosta, krymu a novovzniknutej hranice novoruska.
time have come to wipe out the hohol rats in kiev with a bunker-buster nuke! nice words do not help, the only mean they understand is overhelming force
so after almost 18 months of “special operation” ukraine still has aircrafts and air bases??!! and still all bridges across dnieper are intact and weapons and troops go to east front without any problems.
of course. you know putin is a wef young leader. putin is in on the global plan aswell. putin also sucks the sweat off jewish ballbag.
most people i talk to, now realise that this conflict was indeed started purposely by the us. i feel so sorry for the ukrainians that gave had to flee. i’m working in a refugee housing and the general feeling from them is that zelensky has sold them out out and betrayed them
it doesn’t matter now. the important thing is for putin to find a way out of this quagmire for the sake of his country.
“the russian military does not officially acknowledge ukrainian attacks by foreign cruise missiles on its territories, likely in order to avoid escalation”
this statement made me laugh. especially the “escalation” part.
